Monster in the Shadows

Poorly produced documentary which deserved far better.

Disjointed, it feels like its just one big trailer - constantly jumping between scenes, interviews etc.

And the same music loop all the way through.

The story behind this documentary is really beyond disturbing and horrible.

I would have preferred to see more warnings before watching it.

(I watched it on Cmore where they didn't have that much info about the story or warnings which I think they should have had.)

Keep this in mind before watching!

As I watched the account unfold over the course of this three-part documentary I was as shocked and astonished as I was disturbed to see and hear the details surrounding Brittany's disappearance.

The manipulation of evidence and testimony further complicates the underlying sinister set of occurrences, and this documentary lays bare some very serious questions.

My heart goes out to the mother, and the friends and family affected by this heartbreaking tragedy.

I am a survivor of father-daughter sexual abuse, and this documentary perpetuates the lie that victims become perpetrators.

The vast majority of CSA victims do NOT go on to become abusers. Also, we don't all "love" our abusers as one fool in this documentary stated. One of the happiest days in my life was when my father dropped dead of a cocaine induced heart attack.

Victims pretend to love their abusers because we desperately seek acceptance and approval from others. We tell people what they want to hear. In reality, we usually do NOT become abusers and we usually HATE our abusers. But "nice girls" don't hate, so we pretend otherwise.

The media does not fare much better. Especially this talking head they chose to include? I hope they chose to interview him as an example of what NOT to do. Total scumbag. However, no one is as bad as the detective. How did this green, inept, and barely-out-of-training-wheels "cop" get a case of such magnitude? All you need to do is listen to this loser talk for two minutes and you know he's not qualified to manage a Burger King, let alone lead a missing persons investigation. The investigators, media, and social media trolls should feel NOTHING but deep shame and feelings of inadequacy, because they are trash.
